In this episode of Dirty Laundry, we sit down with Dr. Melissa Hershberg to talk about Ozempic, weight loss after 40, and what it really means to “glow up” after divorce. Dr. Hershberg is a family doctor, weight loss expert, and author who shares both her personal story and professional advice.

We talk about the pressure women feel to look good after having kids or going through a breakup, the truth behind GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, and how hard it can be to feel confident in your body again. Dr. Hershberg explains her Good Diet Plan, why water-rich foods matter, and how to eat in a way that works long term—not just for fast results.

She also opens up about her own divorce, infertility struggles, and how she started over as a single mom. This episode is all about real talk—how to take care of yourself, feel good in your skin, and find your confidence again, no matter where you’re starting from.
